SamCERA has partnered with Financial Knowledge Network to provide financial education to members. Financial Knowledge Network is well known and respected throughout the industry for providing ‘conflict free’ education. This means the instructors will not offer to sell financial products or their services to students of their classes. Both SamCERA and Financial Knowledge Network believe that this approach eliminates the stress on all parties that is very often a barrier to learning.

Throughout the year, classes will be offered in various topics such as estate planning, tax planning, selecting stocks, and managing your own portfolio. For a complete listing of course offerings, dates and times and course descriptions, log in to the Learning Management System (LMS).
